This view can be continuously toggled to display only the channels that you need to see while mixing complex sessions.

Use track envelope automation to exercise precise control over instrument and plug-in parameter changes. Save all changes with your projects.

Sections and foldersBind collections of events, envelopes, regions, and markers together, allowing them to be moved together as single units. Folder tracks reduce clutter by allowing user-defined groups of tracks (for example, all drum and percussion tracks in a single song) to be nested into their own folder tracks, and expanded for editing as needed.

Tempo curvesEasily create gradual transitions in tempo over the duration of a project. Transition types include Linear, Fast, Slow, Smooth, Sharp, and Hold. Tempo curves are an efficient way to create dramatic or subtle tempo changes in your project.
